Disclosed herein is a method for controlling nematode populations, particularly soil nematode populations. Certain embodiments comprise applying 4-hydroxybenzylalcohol, Sinapis alba plant extract, Sinapis alba seed meal, or a combination thereof, to soil, optionally in the presence of a trap crop. A hatching factor and/or a nematicide may also be applied to the soil, either substantially simultaneously with the 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, Sinapis alba plant extract, Sinapis alba seed meal, or combination thereof, or sequentially in any order. Certain embodiments concern applying 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol to soil that contains potato cyst nematode eggs. The 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol may be obtained by an aqueous extraction of Sinapis alba plant material.

The present invention concerns a process for preparing a polyphenol-rich extract of dry plant biomass, in particular parts of vines, the extract obtained and its use for antifungal applications, in particular for the prevention and treatment of fungal infections on fruits and plants after harvest, but also for applications related to its antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

A disinfectant system, comprising a first aqueous composition having a peracid reactant compound that is either a peroxide compound or an organic acid compound, and a second aqueous composition comprising the peracid reactant compound not selected for the first composition. Each composition is applied separately to, and combined upon, a surface to form a reaction layer, within which a peracid is formed in situ, disinfecting the surface. The compositions can have a flash point, surface tension, and vapor pressure compatible for application as a spray, mist, aerosol, or fog, and can be formulated with an alcohol blend that enables the reaction layer to completely evaporate from the surface after disinfection is complete. In use, the disinfectant systems disclosed herein have up 99.999% antimicrobial efficacy against organism such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonasaeruginosa, and Candida auris.
